Here m is the parameter, equal to the squared modulus. Near m=1 the endpoint integrand is locally (1−m+s2)−1/2. Matching its integral to the outer secant integral gives L. The next correction is of order (1−m)log(1/(1−m)). Keeping the parameter/modulus convention explicit prevents a factor-of-two error in the complementary small quantity.
